Frank, I know from RC modelling
that an extra steel Shell INCREASES the performance of a DC brush motor. But somebody else has to
tell why this happens…… All the best, Emile Van: owner- Hi Vance. That looked like a good site. I
have a question for anyone...... You all know I'm using the Minnkota 101s
for my boat, and I am using MOSTLY stainless for the motor mounts, rudders,
swivels etc. I'm worried about the actual
"clamp" that holds the motor body. I used regular My question is......will the magnetic
attraction of the steel adversely affect the motor ? The permanent magnets in the motor
grab the clamps and I'm worried that the attraction could draw power away from
the armature or damage the magnets. The simple "fix" is to cut off
the steel clamps and replace them with stainless pipe of the same diameter. I looked around a bit for stainless pipe
of that size but at the time couldn't find any scrap stainless available, so
went with the stuff I had laying around. I only need 4 pieces at Anybody know if exterior magnetic
attraction affects the motor ? Frank D. |
